Higher order (>3) reactions are rare due to:

  • the increase in entropy and activation energy as more molecules are involved.

  • shifting of equilibrium towards reactants due to elastic collisions

  • loss of active species on a collision

  • loss of active species on a collision


A.

the increase in entropy and activation energy as more molecules are involved.

Conditions for the occurrence of a reaction:

(i)  Proper orientation and effective collision of the reactants.
(ii)  the chances of simultaneous collision with proper orientation between more than 3 species are very rare, so reaction with order greater than 3 are rare.
